Stumbled across this document published by Delco-Remy in 1959.
It's a service manual that speaks to 6v generators and their
companion electro-mechanical regulators. It's doubtful that
many of you will ever encounter this technology in operation
but I found the document interesting and thought I would
share it with you.

I have a lot of respect for the designers that had to accomplish
these tasks with copper, steel, bakelite and a few tungsten
contact points.

Hi Ed,
It worked OK for me with Acroread 7.0. Possibly you got a bad download.

It's working for me. Be sure to get the whole link (extending to the
.pdf). Here's the link tiny:

Also, maybe you've got an older version of the adobe reader.. Time to
update?

Thanks! just what I need for my Ford tractor with 6V electrical "system". I just used it to mow 5 acres. She runs beautifully still... The entire system is protected by one (1) 30A fuse which recently blew when the coil cracked right down the side and shorted. Just one magneto tho... unlike our aircraft. The new coil brought a handsome price of $25+shipping
Thanks is part to your teachings, I was able to quickly diagnose and repair.

First...due to a project that I've just started, I had a need to install and use an old version of Adobe Acrobat...version 4, to be exact (not the reader...the full program)...and even with that, this Delco Remy pamphlet downloaded fine.
And next, the REAL the reason I'm writing...
Wow! What a booklet! Immediately brings back memories of cleaning and adjusting those regulators in my 1953 Buick...or at least something that looked like those regulators, even if they weren't Delco Remy! Didn't have that book to follow then...but somehow we kept it running...
This has been a week with a lot of walks down memory lane for me. Exchanged emails with my college buddy and best man who has lived in North Carolina for decades. Photos of college days, even pictures from high school. This booklet polishes off a memorable week in style!
Thanks!

Thanks to all,
I tried again after closing a bunch of browser windows and it came through OK.
